Projects

Organize large projects by managing and sharing files and settings, finding required files, and interacting with source control

Projects can help you organize your work and collaborate. Use projects to find files required to run your code, manage and share files and settings, and interact with source control. For more information about projects, see Create Projects and watch Using Projects to Collaborate, Track, and Merge Changes and Perform Code Reviews (4 min, 50 sec).

Not all Projects functionalities are available in MATLAB® Online™.
